Growing an Entrepreneurial Culture in Rural Alaska

The 21st CENTURY LEARN, EARN AND SERVE
ACADEMY is designed to build a foundation of skills that will increase work
readiness and basic entrepreneurial skills utilizing the internet and video
production. Youth ages 16 – 24, who have not graduated from high school or
are not enrolled in college, are invited to focus on a variety of resources,
and build adaptable skills providing an opportunity to remain in their
community with a vocation rather than migrate to larger communities.

Growing an entrepreneurial culture among Alaskan youth
with an emphasis on stemming youth out migration, retaining cherished rural
Alaska culture and creating more stable and sustainable local rural economies
is now possible due to Alaska’s growing rural broadband connectivity.

a job for yourself through the use of Internet and video..
